Chapter Thirty-Nine: Plotting Again
Liu Ying met Mrs. Qi and them on the way to Shanglin Yuan, but Liu Ying hid, Mrs. Qi and Jing Tian did not see Liu Ying, and hurriedly passed the rockery and continued to walk to the Linhua Hall where Mrs. Guan lived.
Mrs. Qi has been distressed by Mrs. Guan not wanting to help her anymore recently, she will never be able to complete such a 'huge' plan by herself, she went back to discuss with Jing Tian, she had to come to Mrs. Guan again, and she must make full use of her. I hope she can help her, as long as she makes some small moves to get the prince Liu Ying down, as soon as the prince goes, the acting king will be the prince, and it will be too late for Empress Lu to cry at that time. I didn't kill Empress Lu myself, and then named Liu Ying a marquis, let him leave Chang'an to spend the rest of his life in the fiefdom, and don't go back to Chang'an to harass her and Ruyi, I never thought of wanting Empress Lu to die.
When I came to the familiar Linhua Palace, I suddenly felt that there was an invisible rejection of myself in the Linhua Palace, and I hesitated a little and did not enter immediately. Stopped outside the palace gate and looked up at these three words, thinking about Mrs. Guan's consistent arrogance and disdain for herself, Mrs. Qi's face sank, and she also rejected the Linhua Palace, and she didn't want to go in anymore. Turning around, Jing Tian stopped her and said, "It's better to go in if you're already here." Mrs. Qi pondered slightly, strengthened her attitude and went in, and as soon as she went up a step, she heard a burst of laughter and talking from inside.
"Chanxin, hurry up and get the sewing tube, I'll make a few clothes for the little prince." Mrs. Guan spoke with a little excitement in her voice.
"Madam, it's still a slave and maid, it's very easy for a slave and a maid to do such a thing, you better rest for a while, the emperor is coming and talking about slaves and maids again."
"It's okay, I'll have the final say, if he scolds you, I'll make the decision for you."
"Mrs. Xie."
……
Hearing that it was so lively inside, Mrs. Qi and Jing Tian glanced at each other, stepped on the steps and lifted the corners of their skirts to enter.
As soon as I entered, I saw Mrs. Guan sitting next to a table with a gold silk brocade in her hand, which were full of needles and threads, fabrics, scissors, and so on, as well as Mrs. Guan's smiling face, as if she was more beautiful without a straight face. Mrs. Guan was busy with her head down, and the smile on her face was very similar to when she was happy, with a baby, the emperor was happy, and she was happy. In the future, children are the business they want to run in their lives, which is a very happy thing, and now, Mrs. Guan is like her original self, how can she not be happy?
Chanxin, who came out with some fur fabrics inside, saw Mrs. Qi coming in, and hurriedly half-squatted down to salute from a distance, "See Mrs. Qi." ”
Mrs. Qi smiled at her slightly, and waved her hand on her abdomen lightly, telling her to excuse her.
Mrs. Guan suddenly looked up and saw Mrs. Qi standing in the middle of the hall, the smile on her face disappeared immediately, and the work in her hand stopped for a moment and kept it on hold, looking at Mrs. Qi and Jing Tian in the center of the hall with a plain but not gloomy face.
"Sit down." said to Mrs. Qi with a slight hint of arrogance.
Chanxin moved a mat and put it in front of the cases where Mrs. Guan was sitting, Qi Ji sat opposite Mrs. Guan, her eyes glanced at the things on the cases, the corners of her mouth curved in a beautiful arc, she looked at the fabrics on the cases, and said with a smile, "It is said that as a mother, the smile on her face will always be hung, I sincerely congratulate Mrs. on her wish." ”
Mrs. Guan glanced at Mrs. Qi with her eyes, knowing that she had nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, and knew that the purpose of her trip was to ask herself to continue to help her, but she had other plans, and she didn't particularly want to help her, after all, Mrs. Qi and the queen were secretly fighting, and it was very dangerous to insert a stick by herself, and if the queen found out, she was afraid that she would die in front of Qi Ji first. So he simply put his hand down to his abdomen, sat up straight and said straight to the point, "I really tried my best, the emperor knows it, but he just won't replace the prince, I can't help it, you, you can find another master." ”
"But I believe that Madame, you have the strength, we have done our part, Madame, do you want to retreat? I helped you fulfill my promise, doesn't Madame feel ashamed of me? Mrs. Qi was anxious in her heart, and when she heard that Mrs. Guan no longer wanted to help her, she was so shocked that she pressed one hand on several cases and looked at Mrs. Guan with a panicked expression, "Even if Madam doesn't help me, does Madam think that after a hundred years, Your Majesty, the queen will let you go?" She was waiting for an opportunity. ”
Mrs. Guan's face was stiff and pale, and she blinked her eyes a few times without thinking, and her mouth was suddenly dry, and her heart was entangled and frightened. It's not to help, it's not to help, Mrs. Guan pinched her forehead worriedly, and said with a little worry, "In this way, she won't let me go, so I really don't want to anger the queen anymore and force her to be anxious, I, we...... We will not wait for Your Majesty to be eliminated in a hundred years. Mrs. Guan was forced by Mrs. Qi to not know what to say, so she had to stop.
Mrs. Qi was also a little discouraged, lowered her head and sighed, cheered for herself, and continued to analyze and persuade Mrs. Guan, "But we really have no way out, Madam will not know that the queen is full of vigilance against everyone in the harem, just standing still, if the emperor dies, we will really die without a place to be buried." Now that we are ready to fly, we have to support each other, take advantage of the emperor's favor for the two of us, and maybe there is still a chance, if Madame wants to be content with the status quo, Madame's life will not last long. Mrs. is more favored than the queen, not to mention that when she was in Chenggao Lingtai, Mrs. was often fortunate to be in the emperor, although she did not have the emperor's descendants, just said that all that Mrs. had encountered in recent days, and the queen was afraid that she would not let go. Since you won't let go of anything, why not fight hard? ”
Mrs. Guan still looked entangled, her eyes seemed to be coincidentally looking forward to Mrs. Qi's eyes, and she looked away again after a few seconds. After pondering solemnly for a long time, he gritted his teeth and said, "Since this is the case, I admit that I am stupid, you say, as long as you can say a way, I will do it, and I have to try it if I succeed or not." Mrs. Guan was forced by Mrs. Qi's eyes, and she had to ask Mrs. Qi to make an idea for her future, and she obeyed.
Speaking of coming up with ideas, Mrs. Qi was not unprepared, she was afraid that Mrs. Guan would say that she had no ideas, so she discussed with Jing Tian in Yuzao Palace before coming to Linhua Palace.
Mrs. Qi pretended to ponder for a while, and finally said, "Okay, I have a solution. The people who move her in the palace are not as good as the people outside the palace, closely monitor the relatives outside the queen's palace, and they all say that the queen's family is powerful, and they are not afraid that her family will not make mistakes, as long as we find a loophole, we will bite and hold on to it, and all the queen's people will be elevated, what do you say? ”
Mrs. Qi said what she was thinking, but she saw that Mrs. Guan was looking at her with a disdainful eye, and she was uncomfortable.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Mrs. Guan didn't want to cause any more war of words, so she didn't solve her doubts with just one sentence. Mrs. Qi's words made Mrs. Guan creepy, Mrs. Qi has the most beautiful face, but she also has the means to catch people off guard. She didn't understand, Mrs. Qi was so smart, why did she still need her help, how could she not find Zhao Meiren and Shi Meiren, but only herself? Could it be that Mrs. Qi thinks that Mrs. Guan is also a smart person? Mrs. Guan couldn't think about it for a while, but after Mrs. Qi finished speaking, Mrs. Guan immediately told herself in her heart: What a powerful woman, she has a plan better than me.
Mrs. Guan thought about it for a while, and was forced to agree, saying that she promised and didn't take this matter seriously to heart, and said that she didn't have this mind in the first place, so it was better to perfunctory Mrs. Qi's promise.
Seeing that Mrs. Guan had promised her, Mrs. Qi saw a smile on her face again, turned her head and said to Jing Tian, "Jing Tian, bring things in." ”
Jing Tian nodded, and when he arrived at the door of the hall, he gestured outward, and two palace maids came in outside the hall, each holding a plate in her hand, Mrs. Guan looked surprised, pointed to the plates and said, "What are you ......?"
Mrs. Qi got up and came to the palace maids with a smile, looked at the plates in their hands and said to Mrs. Guan, "I knew that Madame would be able to do it, so I asked someone to make some nourishing soup and bring it over, Madame is not polite." As he spoke, as soon as he made a gesture, the palace maids brought the soup in their hands to Mrs. Guan, who was sitting next to several desks.
Mrs. Guan looked at the nourishing soup in front of her with a stunned face, opened her mouth in surprise, and said to herself: This is also a good idea, you are amazing, fortunately, I didn't think about being the queen myself, just my little cleverness, others are too lazy to pay attention to my naivety if they don't demolish it.
"Again, do your best." Mrs. Guan said vaguely.
"Madame will succeed." Mrs. Qi said with a smile.
"I'll stake my life and be your shield." Mrs. Guan did not shy away from exposing Mrs. Qi unceremoniously.
Mrs. Qi was stunned for a while, and then smiled, "Madam is serious, we will live well." ”
Mrs. Guan had nothing to say, lowered her head and smelled the fragrance of the tonic soup, scooped a spoonful and tasted it, jokingly, "It tastes good, didn't you put rat poison?" ”
Mrs. Qi and Jing looked at each other for a while, thinking that Mrs. Guan was really outspoken, and she didn't know how to continue her words, so Mrs. Qi smiled awkwardly.
